Grafana Cloud provides a user-friendly, cloud-hosted observability platform designed for both novice and experienced users to efficiently collect and visualize telemetry data. It offers over 100 integrations, known as solutions, which include pre-configured Grafana dashboards and best-practice alerting defaults for monitoring various data sources such as Linux hosts, databases, and Kubernetes clusters. Central to these solutions is Grafana Alloy, an open-source distribution of the OpenTelemetry Collector, which collects and forwards telemetry data to Grafana Cloud backends. The platform enables users to quickly set up a Prometheus and Grafana-based observability stack, offering insights through customizable dashboards and alerts for common failure modes. Grafana Cloud's opinionated approach simplifies decision-making, allowing users to focus on gaining valuable insights into the health and performance of their infrastructure, with the flexibility to tailor alerts and metrics to specific needs.
